Today everyone will order copies of their ring designs from Shapeways! You can order a metal ring or you can order an inexpensive SLS Nylon ring for under $10 including shipping. If you need financial assistance please see me outside of class. Step 1: Upload […]

// Roundup // By today’s class you should have an STL file of a “blank” ring that you have printed a prototype of so that it fits you, designed in Fusion 360. // Today // This week we’ll continue with the Fusion/Meshmixer Stamp Ring Project, and […]

How did the tutorials go? What did you make for your five things in Fusion? When we’re all ready, we’ll start this design walkthrough together: Fusion/Meshmixer Stamp Ring Project I’ll write some homework on the Assignments page before the end of class, depending on how […]

// Finish Tinkercad Presentations // Last few presentations Today is the last chance to fix or add to your blog post and be guaranteed that the changes will be considered for your grade // New Project // What it is NEW GROUPS Open Fusion 360 […]

Today you will present your Tinkercad projects! First, 10 minutes to iron some things out: If you’ve got more than one blog post for this project, combine the posts now. You should have just one post, with multiple sections. Get your prints together to show […]

// Roundup // Last week we printed Penny Traps and talked briefly about 3D printing and design. Everyone signed up for Accounts with Google, WordPress, Thingiverse, and Tinkercad, created a “Hello post“, and started working on a Tinkercad project. If you’re new to the class […]

Hello and welcome to ISCI 104! There are four online services that we will use regularly in this class: Google, WordPress, Thingiverse, and Tinkercad. This post will help you create accounts for all of these services. Whenever you log into an account in the 3SPACE […]

Our first-day 3D print will be a Penny Trap. This model is a good illustration of a design that is possible with 3D-printing but would be impossible with standard subtractive manufacturing methods such as milling. How does the penny get inside? The answer is that we’ll […]
